/* NAME
/*	unix_recv_fd 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	receive file descriptor
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <iostuff.h>
/*
/*	int	unix_recv_fd(fd)
/*	int	fd;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	unix_recv_fd() receives a file descriptor via the specified
/*	UNIX-domain socket. The result value is the received descriptor.
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP fd
/*	File descriptor that connects the sending and receiving processes.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	unix_recv_fd() returns -1 upon failure.
/* LICENSE
